…To MacBook

I was looking for a good way to stream my MP3s and Videos from my itunes to my xbox 360. The xbox talks about connecting to a media pc on your local system and there was no obvious way of connecting the xbox to my mac, until I found Nullriver’s Connect 360. I first downloaded their trial version from here. Installation was a breeze, just unzip the file and then double click on the “Connect360.prefPane” file and connect 360 gets installed in your System Preferences pane under the “Other” section:

Preferences Pane with Connect 360 installed

Once you open the Connect 360 preference, all you have to do is click the “Start” button and it will index your iTunes content and make it available for xbox 360. You will then see your computer’s name come up on the 360 when you go to the music or video library.

I didn’t even have to think about going to the site and paying the $20 fee to nullriver. It was so easy to install, so easy to get started and when I played some of the MP3s on the 360 and saw how well it worked I immediately bought a key to activate the full version. I would highly recommend this to anyone who has a mac and an xbox 360.
